Pretrained Model Usage Example

from ultralytics import YOLO

# Load an Open Images Dataset V7 pretrained YOLOv8n model
model = YOLO("yolov8n-oiv7.pt")

# Run prediction
results = model.predict(source="image.jpg")

# Start training from the pretrained checkpoint
results = model.train(data="coco8.yaml", epochs=100, imgsz=640)
# Predict using an Open Images Dataset V7 pretrained model
yolo detect predict source=image.jpg model=yolov8n-oiv7.pt

# Start training from an Open Images Dataset V7 pretrained checkpoint
yolo detect train data=coco8.yaml model=yolov8n-oiv7.pt epochs=100 imgsz=640

Key Features

  • Encompasses ~9M images annotated in various ways to suit multiple computer vision tasks.
  • Houses a staggering 16M bounding boxes across 600 object classes in 1.9M images. These boxes are primarily hand-drawn by experts ensuring high precision.
  • Visual relationship annotations totaling 3.3M are available, detailing 1,466 unique relationship triplets, object properties, and human activities.
  • V5 introduced segmentation masks for 2.8M objects across 350 classes.
  • V6 introduced 675k localized narratives that amalgamate voice, text, and mouse traces highlighting described objects.
  • V7 introduced 66.4M point-level labels on 1.4M images, spanning 5,827 classes.
  • Encompasses 61.4M image-level labels across a diverse set of 20,638 classes.
  • Provides a unified platform for image classification, object detection, relationship detection, instance segmentation, and multimodal image descriptions.

Dataset Structure

Open Images V7 is structured in multiple components catering to varied computer vision challenges:

  • Images: About 9 million images, often showcasing intricate scenes with an average of 8.3 objects per image.
  • Bounding Boxes: Over 16 million boxes that demarcate objects across 600 categories.
  • Segmentation Masks: These detail the exact boundary of 2.8M objects across 350 classes.
  • Visual Relationships: 3.3M annotations indicating object relationships, properties, and actions.
  • Localized Narratives: 675k descriptions combining voice, text, and mouse traces.
  • Point-Level Labels: 66.4M labels across 1.4M images, suitable for zero/few-shot semantic segmentation.

Applications

Open Images V7 is a cornerstone for training and evaluating state-of-the-art models in various computer vision tasks. The dataset's broad scope and high-quality annotations make it indispensable for researchers and developers specializing in computer vision.

Dataset YAML

Typically, datasets come with a YAML (Yet Another Markup Language) file that delineates the dataset's configuration. For the case of Open Images V7, a hypothetical OpenImagesV7.yaml might exist. For accurate paths and configurations, one should refer to the dataset's official repository or documentation.

Usage

To train a YOLO11n model on the Open Images V7 dataset for 100 epochs with an image size of 640, you can use the following code snippets. For a comprehensive list of available arguments, refer to the model Training page.

Warning

The complete Open Images V7 dataset comprises 1,743,042 training images and 41,620 validation images, requiring approximately 561 GB of storage space upon download.

Executing the commands provided below will trigger an automatic download of the full dataset if it's not already present locally. Before running the below example it's crucial to:

  • Verify that your device has enough storage capacity.
  • Ensure a robust and speedy internet connection.

Train Example

from ultralytics import YOLO

# Load a COCO-pretrained YOLO11n model
model = YOLO("yolo11n.pt")

# Train the model on the Open Images V7 dataset
